MARYWOOD ATHLETICS GOLF OUTING - September 21, 2026
The Marywood University Athletics Department hosts its major annual fundraiser, the Marywood Athletics Golf Outing (formerly the Pacers Club Golf Outing). In 2025, the event raised over $40,000 in support of Marywood’s athletic department and its teams. The department is grateful for the continued support of participants and volunteers and looks forward to building on this success as Marywood transitions to the Middle Atlantic Conference (MAC).
The 2026 Marywood Athletics Golf Outing will take place on Monday, September 21, 2026, at Sand Springs Golf Club (Drums, Pa.).
For more information about the outing, please call 570-961-4724 and ask for Andrew Smith or Julie Trott, or email athletics@marywood.edu.
